Pol.Gen. Somyot Poompanmoung (Thai: สมยศ พุ่มพันธุ์ม่วง; rtgs: Somyot Phumphanmuang; born 27 December 1954) is a former commissioner-general of the Royal Thai Police and current president of the Football Association of Thailand (FAT).
Following the military coup of 22 May 2014, Somyot was appointed to the National Legislative Council (NLC). Members are required to reveal their assets and properties to determine if they are "unusually rich". Somyot and his wife's net worth was reported to be about 355.8 million baht (roughly US$11 million). One government critic said that this raised "...questions about how a lifelong career in the public service could have made him a millionaire."
On 11 February 2016, Somyot was elected as the new president of the Football Association of Thailand.
